YouTube star Nikita Dragun has opened up about her mental health saying that she has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder.

In a video titled 'what happened' the Dragun Beauty founder shared that she was diagnosed with the mental health condition when she went through a manic episode that left her hospitalized.

"This is one of the hardest things for me to talk about," she started. 

"In some ways, I feel guilty for feeling this way. Today, I would like to share that I am bipolar and it feels really great to say that."

She narrated an instance where she during the manic episode, she was forced to confront childhood trauma.

"It led to, on Thanksgiving, me walking out of the house by myself freezing, in a dress and stripper heels," she said through tears. 

"There’s another moment I won’t get into, but like an altercation happened and I ended up in a police car. I got brough to a hospital. I had to be evaluated from head-to-toe and I was placed under a detaining order, which basically means you’re a threat to yourself or other people."
